sound and disposing mind, memory and understanding, do ~~ke,
publish and declare this as and for my Last Will and Testament,
J
of
hereby revoking and making void all former wills and codicils by
me at any time heretofore made.
FIRST. I order and direct that all my just debts and
funeral expenses be paid by my Executrix, Executor or Executors,
as the case may be, hereinafter named, as soon as conveniently
may be done after my decease.
SECOND. I give and bequeath my guns and hunting equipment
unto my sons, namely, RANDALL L. LYNN and VICTOR G. LYNN, said
items to be distributed in accordance with the alternating
choices of individual items by my said sons, such selection
process to commence with the first item to be chosen by my older
son.
THIRD. I give, devise and bequeath all the rest, residue
and remainder of my Estate, real, personal and mixed, whatsoever
and wheresoever situated, unto my wife, namely, ADA J. LYNN,
absolutely and in fee simple, if she survives me by as many as
sixty (60) days.
FOURTH. If my wife, ADA J. LYNN, does not survive me by
as many as sixty (60) days, then and in that event, I order and
direct that all the rest, residue and remainder of my Estate be
distributed and disposed of in the following manner:
A. I give and devise all of my real estate
located in Seville Township, Perry County,
Pennsylvania, (together with all household
furnishings and equipment therein) in equal shares
unto my two (2) sons, namely, RANDALL L. LYNN and
VICTOR G. LYNN, share and share alike as tenants in
common, in fee simple. If either of my said sons
should predecease me, I order and direct that the
undivided interest of such deceased son in said real
estate shall be distributed unto his lawful issue
then living per stirpes by representation and not per
capita. If any such issue have not attained the age
of twenty-three (23) years at the time of my death, I
order and direct that the undivided interest of any
such beneficiary shall be held and managed for him or
her in accordance with the provisions of Paragraph E
hereinbelow.
B. I give and bequeath unto my daughter,
namely, NINA M. LYNN FINK, a sum of money equal to
one-third (1/3) of the appraised value of the real
estate devised under paragraph A hereinabove. The
term "appraised value" shall mean the value accepted
by any governmental body having the power of taxing
said real estate as the result of my death. If no
such taxing requirement exists at the time of my
death, then the "appraised value" shall mean the
value determined by the formal appraisal of a
competent and reputable real estate appraiser being a
full member of the American Association of Real
Estate Appraisers ("MAI") as selected by my said
daughter, the fees and expenses of which appraisal
shall be borne by my Estate as an expense of

administration. If my said daughter should

predecease me, I order and direct that said sum of
money shall be distributed unto the then living
lawful issue of my said daughter per stirpes by
representation and not per capita. If any of such
issue have not attained the age of twenty-three (23)
years at the time of my death, I order and direct
that the respective distributive amounts shall be
held and managed for him or her in accordance with
the provisions of Paragraph E hereinbelow. If my
said daughter should predecease me and if it is
necessary to select a real estate appraiser under the
foregoing terms, I order and direct that the entity
named as Trustee in Paragraph E hereinbelow shall
select said appraiser.
C. I order and direct that a sum of money equal
to ten per centum (10%) of my residuary estate (being
the gross value of my Estate less my lawful debts,
the expenses of administration, funeral expenses,
death or inheritance taxes and the prior
distributions required under Paragraphs A and B
hereinabove) shall be set aside for distribution unto
my grandchildren living at the time of my death,
which sum I give and bequeath in equal shares unto
such grandchildren, share and share alike, without
substitution of issue.
D. I give, devise and bequeath all the rest,
residue and remainder of my Estate, real, personal
and mixed, whatsoever and wheresoever situated, in
equal shares unto my three (3) children, namely, NINA
M. LYNN FINK, RANDALL L. LYNN and VICTOR G. LYNN,

If any of my said children should predecease me, I
order and direct that the share of such deceased
child shall be distributed unto her or his lawful
issue per stirpes by representation and not per
capita, subject, however, to the protective
provisions of Paragraph E hereinbelow.
E. I order and direct that the distributive
share under any of the foregoing Paragraphs to any
beneficiary who has not attained the age of
twenty-three (23) years at the time of my death shall
be distributed unto THE F1RST BANK AND TRUST COMPANY
OF MECHANICSBURG, PA (or any successor by reason of
merger, consolidation or other corporate
reorganization) in a separate trust, nevertheless, as
my testamentary Trustee, to hold, manage, invest,
accumulate income and reinvest until said beneficiary
attains the age of twenty-three (23) years, at which
time said individual trust shall be terminated and
the then remaining net balance of said trust shall be
distributed unto the beneficiary absolutely.
LASTLY. I nominate, constitute and appoint my wife, ADA
J. LYNN, to be the Executrix of this, my Last Will and
Testament, but if for any reason she should fail to qualify as
such Executrix or cease so to serve, then and in that event, I
nominate, constitute and appoint my son, namely, RANDALL L.
LYNN, to be the Executor hereof. If both of the foregoing
persons should fail to qualify as my personal representatives
hereunder or cease so to serve, then and in that ultimate event,
I nominate, constitute and appoint my two (2) other children,
